The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) is offering this grant to support participation in the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS). Created under the Anti Car Theft Act of 1992, NMVTIS aims to deter vehicle trafficking by combating title fraud and auto theft. This grant is for states to enhance their titling agencies’ ability to instantly verify paper title information with electronic data, and to provide law enforcement with a tool to reduce vehicle title-related crimes. Where implemented, NMVTIS has demonstrated significant benefits, including time and cost savings, reduced consumer wait times, decreased motor vehicle thefts, improved recovery rates, and enhanced investigative capabilities, ultimately strengthening efforts against vehicle fraud and theft.

| Description: | The Anti Car Theft Act of 1992 focused on deterring trafficking in stolen vehicles by strengthening law enforcement against auto theft (Title I), combating automobile title fraud (Title II), preventing chop shop”-related thefts (Title III), and inspecting exports for stolen vehicles (Title IV). The National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) was created under Title II of the Act, as amended, and codified at 49 U.S.C. 30501 et seq. In 1996, the Anti Car Theft Act was reauthorized and amended, transferring the responsibility for NMVTIS to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). NMVTIS is designed to allow the states titling agencies to instantly and reliably verify the information on a paper title with the electronic data from the state that issued the title. In addition, the system provides law enforcement with a tool to assist in reducing auto theft and vehicle title-related crimes. Where implemented, NMVTIS has already produced results, including time and cost savings, reductions in consumer wait time, decreases in motor vehicle thefts, improved recovery rate of stolen vehicles, increased ability to identify cloned vehicles prior to title issuance, and improved investigative abilities.
